                Therein lies the debate. I capped Saka and couldn't really give much of a toss. Can see the FPL official tweets crediting him with both assists but just the one assist actually recorded.

                I know you think you know exactly what is happening but it’s disingenuous to pretend it isn’t at least ambiguous. They awarded it and took it away…

    "If a goal is scored directly following a save, block or a shot rebounding off the woodwork, an assist is awarded. The shot does not have to be on target to result in an assist. The action leading to the save, block or rebound can be a shot or a cross-shot but not an obvious cross or pass attempt."

    As a Saka captainer, I'm counting it as a cross-shot.
